Austin Cottingham 5 Memphis fun pt 2
After the delight of being guided around the Amro store we left and started to head towards our guitar store, or our second music store of the trip. The music store that we visited was Guitar Center, we pulled into the parking lot and this place is looking rather bland. Although when you venture inside the store it has tons of room and things to look at, in just the doorway. As soon as we walked in we were greeted by a nice guy called Grant who works over the bass and guitar section. The guitar section was giant with a multitude of guitars for about eighty feet and stacked four guitars high. Then you got the bass guitar section with around the same stack, just about forty feet long. Then one bass stood out to me that I had been researching for quite some time. This was the Epiphone four Thunder Bird, it had a darker wood grain with an white outcrop on the horn of the bass. Then on the white horn of the bass there is a Apache looking eagle design. I ended up getting someone to get the bass of the wall for me because it was the fourth one up, on the ceiling. I studied the bass and played it for about thirty minutes then made my decision, and I decided that I was going to get a new bass. After we bagged it up we continued to walk around the store and look at the various instruments and sections housing the instruments. The store had an acoustic section as well as a piano section and a drum section. Then another big part of the store was sound equipment as well as light bars and recording studio equipment. After we got done looking at the giant store packed to the brim with sound equipment and instruments, we put my bass in the back of the Jeep and headed to my dads grill and spice store. After looking for spices for around ten minutes he made his selection and once we left there we went into a bike store adjacent to the spice store. The bikes were pretty much the same as Gear head in Jonesboro. After all of this shopping we decided to go home and try out our new stuff.
